An excellent FAST Charger for the OPP-817 specifically designed by W4RT Electronics to minimize the charge time while optimizinge the charge capacity. Takes a bit over 2 hours to charge a fully discharged OPP-817. Can be use to charge other packs as well.

 The One Board Filter (OBF) affords you the opportunity to have both the Collins CW and SSB mechanical filters available in your FT-817 or FT-817ND together! No one else offers this option. You can install yourself or have W4RT Electronics do so for you.

This filter is a must for any serious CW operator. Same Collins Mechanical Filter used by Yaesu, but much more affordable! Simple plug-in installation.

The dynamically-adaptive neural-network technology to achieve noise and tone reduction is remarkably more impressive than other noise reduction technologies available for the FT-817(ND). K4YHQ said "... the static, the hash, the white noise just gone, all gone, as if by magic." No magic, just great engineering. Available for DIY or W4RT Electronics installation.

Increases the average TALK POWER by about 5 dB. Typical report of users is that they are now making contacts impossible before! Why buy an amplifier before using the One BIG Punch? Thousands of happy users! W4WB says "I never operate my rigs without the One BIG Punch in my microphone!"

The Z-817 is the ultimate autotuner for QRP radios including the Yaesu FT-817(ND). The Z-817 interfaces to the CAT port (ACC) on the back of the FT-817 radio with the provided cable. Tuning could not be simpler; one button push on the tuner is all that is needed and the Z-817 takes care of the rest. It will switch to PKT mode, transmit a carrier, tune the tuner, then restore the radio to the previous mode! It has 2000 memories to cover 160 through 6 meters.

The Z-11Pro is a SOA autotuner and the Ultra version contains its own batteries for base and portable operation. It weights more than the Z-100 Ultra, but it has many more features. W4WB particularly likes the steel cover option so that the autotuner serves to hold the Palm Paddles for CW operation when portable.

This filter improves transmit audio quality by about a 2 dB gain in TALK POWER and improves articulation. Also improves receive operation by having a much flatter passband and great out-of-band rejection. Same Collins Mechanical Filter used by Yaesu, but much more affordable! Simple plug-in installation.

The bhi CAT-MATE is an electronic “Y” splitter that enables the bhi Radio Mate compact keypad to operate with many other accessories for the Yaesu radio series, and also be used as a standalone product. The key benefit of the CAT-MATE is that it allows more than one accessory to be used with the radios CAT port at the same time.

Easy to use adjustable stand for the FT-817(ND). Really reduces stress trying to see the display!

Never have to get into the "tangle" of wires behind your radio when you want to operate CW. This cable just plugs into the microphone jack and, with a single Menu you setting, is ready to go on CW. Great for portable and mobile operation.
